For the Bengals, Carlos Dunlap being down was expected, but I doubt few observers thought T Andre Smith and Brian Leonard would be down. This means Anthony Collins will get the start at right tackle, and Cedric Peerman will be the third running back. Obviously the team will miss Dunlap’s pass rush ability again, but perhaps more interesting will be how the Bengals handle Leonard’s absence in the backfield. Leonard is invaluable for his ability to block and catch on third downs. Look for Peerman, a big special teams contributor to get some offensive snaps today.
